Please do not power post e.g. make empty posts with no info/questions/images - Empty posts cause threads to grow rapidly and is a nuisance to those who subscribe to many threads. Please take any private conversations to PMs or Profile Comments.

Experimenting with different style, while remaining loyal to the own indentity

Famous why
In 2006 she replaced Kate Moss in the H&M campaigns after Moss was fired due to a cocaine scandal. 12 years as muse (and best friend) to Riccardo Tisci.

Zoom
She lived for five years in a village between Mombassa and Malindi. Her only friends in that period were a stray dog named Pippo and a gigantic iguana. "They were the most wonderful years of my life."

She made her acting debut in May 2006 in New York, in the role of Solange in The Maids by Genet.

She loves
"Life, travels, my family, people that surround me". She buys a lot of her clothes while travelling: "Skirts, coats and jewelry that tell a story."

She hates
"Uggs, I find them atrocious. And besides, everyone has them."

Favourite dress
"Two. One is my mother's. It's blue, from the Seventies, and I wear it in the evening - sometimes barefoot on the beach. And a black and yellow Sonia Rykel, which makes me feel confident and comfortable."

Favourite place in the world
Africa, "It's a country of extremes, it's a country that stays in the skin".

Favorite movieNovecento by Bernardo Bertolucci.

Her icon
"My mum, she has a very specific way of mixing: bourgeois and hippie. She doesnt't wear a lot of make-up but she always has to wear glasses and she has this huge collection of glasses. And no rules".

We like her because
She's got the spirit of an exporer and a lot of practical sense.

It's insane to hire "Muse girls" to open and close one after another:yuk:.This kind of tendency bores me to death and makes me sick and so freaking-out to appreciate the details. The choice of opening and closing represents the core of this collection, which is equal to the highlight of interpreting designers 's thoughts and inspiration. I'm so frustrated to see the so-called "It" models keep stealing the chances which belongs to their real owners. WTF:yuk:
MCB would close DG if they had nomal sense:angry:
